November is already gone?!?!This last month was filled with good Ellie quotes....

"I smell like sandwiches and poop, momma"

"I love Daddy and Dadda and Mommy and Jessie. I love ALL the friends!"

"The wind is spinning like ballerinas!"

Ellie was holding a stuffed Big Bird from Sesame Street, and Ryan joked with her and said, "Should we cook Big Bird for dinner?" and Ellie said while looking at Big Bird, " Ya, Let's cook ya little buddy!"

Me- "Ellie, who is your best friend at daycare?"Ellie- "Kylie"Me- "Oh, what does Kylie look like?"Ellie- " A cactus"

I was walking down some steep steps while holding Ellie, and she wispered in my ear, "Hurry up, dude"

When she goes to tickle me and Ryan, she says, "Lickle Lickle Lickle!" (tickle, tickle tickle)

Ryan & I heard Ellie wake up in her room down the hall, and we let her play in there for a while before we went to get her. I think she felt abandoned, because she started saying, "SOMEBODY!!.............ANYBODY!!!" haha

Looking at a picture of my mom, I asked Ellie who that was. She said, "Grandma Judy!" and I said, "You're right! Do you remember where Grandma Judy is?" (expecting her to say Heaven) and Ellie said, "Oh, she's at Target!"

Ellie had a MASSIVE blowout while Grandpa and Uncle Dan were watching her (Bless their souls).....Grandpa said to Ellie, "Wow, that's a lotta poop, girl!" and Ellie said, " Ya, it's SO COOL!"

This is my favorite.....In the middle of the night, Ryan woke up to Ellie yelling "I CAN'T SEE!! I CAN'T SEE!!!!"Ryan found Ellie in the dark hallway, facing the wall.....hahahhaha

This weekend was a good one!
Friday night, Ryan & I finally had my birthday dinner at the Tree Room! (I was feeling a lot better than last time we tried to go...)

My Husband is the sweetest!!

The Sundance Tree Room is quite a treat! We dressed up and ate our 1-night-a-year fancy date meal. We joked about how our T I N Y little gourmet appetizer costed as much as 2 Large Cafe Rio salads..but we were there for the experience, right? :) OH, and if you haven't tried the Tree Room's Pepper Steak.... YOU ARE MISSING OUT. It is absolutely heavenly...and I am not even a huge steak person! Gotta try it. I have been craving it ever since we ate there.

Here is Ryan about to dig into the fabulous Charcuterie--

Saturday Morning went a little like this:

I hear our doorbell ring. I was thinking, 'Who on earth could it be? We don't know anyone in our neighborhood yet.. and I am still in my pajamas..'

I opened the door to find two 9-year old boys with their skateboards asking, "Hey, can your husband come skate?"

You see, rewind a couple months ago when we first moved into the neighborhood. These little boys saw Ryan outside of our garage with his skateboard propped up against the wall. The boys started commenting on how nice his skateboard was, and they asked him if he could do any cool tricks. Ryan busted out some tricks, and ever since then....these kids IDOLIZE Ryan. :)

Fast forward to them at my door asking me if my husband can come and skate. I giggled to myself as I went upstairs to tell Ryan that his "friends" were at the door wanting to skate. Ryan smiled and went outside to skate with them.

We joke about how I am so proud that Ryan is finally starting to make "friends" in the neighborhood, and how hanging out with these 9 year olds really boosts Ryan's self-esteem....especially when they ask him who he is sponsored by, and comment on how SWWEEEET our cars are. (ummm hello!? Ryan drives a Geo Metro!! hahahah nothin against 'ol potatoe.....but... ;)

So here is Ryan and his 'buddies' skatin. :)﻿

In the afternoon, we spontaneously decided to go to the Golf Course that is right by our house and hit off the driving range. I have never been golfing in my life....except for Mini Golf, so this was definitely not my forte. I even failed with the dress code... Oh well, atleast I looked fashionable while golfing, right? Ryan joked with me about it and refused to let me come into the club house with him..... last time I wear a hat, scarf, and boots golfing! ;)

Here is the master golfer...

Saturday Afternoon, we were lucky to babysit the twins! These babies almost have my whole heart....seriously. Even when James barfs all over me at church. 3 times.

Me- "Grandpa is sick... Should we go give him some loves?"Ellie- "Ya. I have an idea! How bout we give him some bubble gum or some grapes and play with Phoebe and all the friends? We can give him some medicine too."

My Halloween started off with a visit at work from the cutest little baby bee that I ever did see! Phoebe just melted my heart in that costume!

The twins James & Thea were little chicks! SO dang cute!

Ellie surprised us this year by wanting to be a skeleton out of all things! We for sure thought she would choose to be a princess or Dora or something...but we were stoked when she wanted to be a skeleton :)

Isn't she the cutest?!?!

Ryan & I decided to be skeletons with Ellie...and may have gone a little overboard with our face paint...haha we watched this tutorial and painted our faces ourselves. I think we turned out looking RADICAL! Good thing Ellie wasn't scared of us :)
